Capítulo 10: 10. Promise
In a secure chamber inside the Ming royal palace.
King Ming looked at Xerxes who was sited opposite him.
The king closely examined the prince for a long time then he suddenly spoke, " Who are you and what have you done with my son? you have 89 breaths to explain. After that, I will make my decision."
Xerxes looked at the king as if finally meeting the real man for the first time.
Xerxes suddenly put on a serious face and said " I had hoped that nobody would notice the small differences but as stated by the proclaimed sages, a parent always knows these things. Yes, I am not your son, his soul has long departed this dimension. I have temporarily possessed this body to come back to life. In my current state am no different from the walking dead. "
" Now, before making your decision, you should know that am immortal, you can destroy this body in an attempt to kill me but all you will do is delay my return, and my immortal soul will live on. Should you choose to let me borrow this body, I will fulfill all the dreams of its former host and even go beyond those dreams in an attempt to repay this karma, for example, I see that you are stuck at the ninth stage of mortal cultivation, I can improve your cultivation technique so that you can easily break through to start on the journey of true cultivation, all you have to do is let me borrow this body for about 100 years. "
The king looked at Xerxes for some time without any response.
After about 30 breaths of time, he finally replied." I still had some hope that my only son was still alive but that was wishful thinking. If you had told me that you were my son, I would have believed you for some time but after my grief passing, I would kill you or as you said tried to. Logically, your possessing my son's body should not bother me since by burying it in the ground I undoubtedly allow maggots and all manner of other insects to feast on my son's body. So, here is my counter offer take it or leave it, I may not be able to kill you but at least I can delay your resurrection.
You will act as my son in public without any flows, you will fulfill all my son's unfulfilled wishes, you will ensure that the name Ming has eternal glory and respect, and you must come up with a way to make me believe and trust your word and you will, of course, help me achieve higher heights in cultivation so that I can personally avenge my son. "
" We have a deal, I will fulfill all your conditions, as for trusting my word, let's just swear a heavenly oath "replied Xerxes.
Xerxes drew a complex diagram on the floor then both of them entered the boundaries of the formation"
" I feel nothing," said the king in anger.
" If you think that you can fool me, you are wrong, I may not know much about heavenly oaths but I have read about them so just prepare yourself for the consequences if you planned to fool me"
"Calm down old man, you think you are worthy of being fooled by me, am only carrying out this deal with you so that I can pay my karmic debt, as for you delaying my return, that time has long passed, right now, I may still not be able to kill you but I can easily escape, so calm down ."
," After some time, a translucent film of energy surrounded both of them ." Quickly, Xerxes said his oath and as first as the energy appeared, it disappeared.
" I will surely fulfill my oath to you, this I promise," said Xerxes.
